Chlorinated aromatics from the combustion of hazardous waste

• The production and emission of chlorinated aromatics from a hazardous waste incinerator were shown to be influenced by the operating conditions. The emissions of chlorinated benzenes, PCDD and PCDF show statistically significant correlations to the chlorine input. Different substance groups also correlate, and the results presented correspond well with a general formation mechanism of chlorophenols via chlorobenzenes as indicated by others.
